Southington – Collision With Serious Injuries

Two motorists were hurt in a collision in Southington last Friday evening.

At approximately 11:04 p.m., authorities received reports of an accident in the vicinity of 201 West Queen Street and quickly dispatched emergency crews to the area. According to officials, Gregory Peterson was riding his motorcycle westbound on West Queen Street when a vehicle, driven by Bruce Sluis, exited from an establishment in the area and onto the path of Peterson’s motorcycle. The resulting collision threw Peterson off his bike, sustaining serious injuries in the process. He was immediately transported to Hartford Hospital for treatment. Sluis also sustained injuries and was brought to Bristol Hospital. The crash is still being investigated, and authorities are asking possible witnesses to come forward and assist in the investigation.
